There is an increasing dependence on electric power in today’s electric world and developments in computerization and electrification have increased everyone’s dependence on electricity, and hence a ...

In today’s electronic designs, power distribution networks (PDNs) have become a key focus for several reasons. For one, the rails now provide lower voltages with tighter tolerances. Rails that were 5 ...

Download this article in PDF format. Most oscilloscopes ship with 10X attenuation passive probes because this type of probe is well-suited to making measurements across a broad range of applications.

The August print issue of EE-Evaluation Engineering includes a special report on power electronics test. In preparation for that article, we asked test equipment vendors to provide information on ...

You almost never hear of a DC Watt Meter – one just does some mental math with Volts and Amps at the back of one’s head. An AC Watt Meter, on the other hand, can by pretty useful on any workbench.

Power quality has become a key concern for utility, facility, and consulting engineers because end-use equipment is now more sensitive to disturbances arising both from the utility power supply and ...

The power factor measurement has long been accepted as an invaluable tool for identifying insulation defects, such as ageing, deterioration, moisture ingress and localized failures, involving the ...

Temperature is one of the most widely measured parameters in a power plant. No matter the type of plant, accurate and reliable temperature measurement is essential for operational excellence.

One of the most important differentiators in smartphones these days isn’t bells and whistles; it’s something far more fundamental: How long does the battery last? Unfortunately, battery technology ...
